IMPORTANT NOTES
Handling the Internal Hard
Disk Drive
• Please note that the hard disk is a consuming product. To
protect yourself against risk of loosing important data by
accidental disk damage, we recommend that you periodi-
cally save a backup copy on the CD-R/RW disc.
• Before performing any of the following actions, be sure to
perform the shutdown procedure (p. 30). Failure to do so
may result in the loss of song data or damage to the hard
disk.
• Do not turn off the power while the hard disk is operating.
• While using the BR-1180/1180CD, be careful not to subject
the unit to vibration or shock, and avoid moving the unit
while the power is turned on.
602
• Install the unit on a solid, level surface in an area free from
vibration. If the unit must be installed at an angle, be sure
the installation does not exceed the permissible range.
603
• Avoid using the unit immediately after it has been moved
to a location with a level of humidity that is greatly
different than its former location. Rapid changes in the
environment can cause condensation to form inside the
drive, which will adversely affect the operation of the
drive and/or damage CD-R/RW discs. When the unit has
been moved, allow it to become accustomed to the new
environment (allow a few hours) before operating it.
Handling CD-ROMs
801
• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside
(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD-ROM
discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean
using a commercially available CD cleaner.
Copyright
851
• Unauthorized recording, distribution, sale, lending, public
performance, broadcasting, or the like, in whole or in part,
of a work (musical composition, video, broadcast, public
performance, or the like) whose copyright is held by a
third party is prohibited by law.
852a
• When exchanging audio signals through a digital
connection with an external instrument, this unit can
perform recording without being subject to the restrictions
of the Serial Copy Management System (SCMS). This is
because the unit is intended solely for musical production,
and is designed not to be subject to restrictions as long as
it is used to record works (such as your own composi-
tions) that do not infringe on the copyrights of others.
(SCMS is a feature that prohibits second-generation and
later copying through a digital connection. It is built into
MD recorders and other consumer digital-audio
equipment as a copyright-protection feature.)
853
• Do not use this unit for purposes that could infringe on a
copyright held by a third party. We assume no responsi-
bility whatsoever with regard to any infringements of
third-party copyrights arising through your use of this
unit.
